Back in 2021, Chris Martin revealed that Coldplay would stop making music in 2025. During a recent interview, he confirmed that the band would indeed retire from recording music at 12 albums.

"We are only going to do 12 proper albums and that’s real. Yeah, I promise,” the frontman declared. “Because less is more and for some of our critics, even less would be even more! It’s really important that we have that limit.”

Why 12? Martin has a good reason: “There’s only seven Harry Potters. There’s only 12 and a half Beatles albums, there’s about the same for Bob Marley, so all our heroes," he explained about the number. "Also, having that limit means the quality control is so high right now and for a song to make it, it’s almost impossible, which is great. And so where we could be coasting, we’re trying to improve.”

Martin went on to admit that he'll probably make music with his bandmates as side projects, but as far as Coldplay goes there are only "two more proper albums” after Moon Music arrives on October 4.

Coldplay has been on their Music of the Spheres tour since 2022 and are looking to make history with it next year when they play eight nights at London's Wembley Stadium.
